Greater wax moths (Galleria mellonella L., Pyraloidea) use ultrasound sensitive ears to detect clicking conspecifics and echolocating bats. Pyralid ears have four sensory cells, A14. The audiogram of G. mellonella has best frequency at 60 kHz with a threshold around 47 dB sound pressure level. A1 and A2 have almost equal thresholds in contrast to noctuids and geometrids. A3 responds at + 12 to + 1

The basis of this paper is a comparative study, on the one hand of the frequency of saints' names among the women in medieval Denmark, and on the other of the occurrence of pictures of female saints in the same region. As to certain names, e g Catherine, Barbara and Anne, there is a correspondence of frequency and time, which suggests a deliberate popularization of the saints in question. Othr cas

Researchers in the field of molecular ecology and evolution require versatile and low-cost genetic typing methods. The AFLP (amplified fragment length polymorphism) method was introduced 10 years ago and shows many features that fulfil these requirements. With good quality genomic DNA at hand, it is relatively easy to generate anonymous multilocus DNA profiles in most species and the start-up time

Popular Abstract in Swedish Vattentransporten i växter är viktig för en mängd olika processer. De flesta fritidsodlare vet att vattentillgången påverkar växternas utveckling i stor utsträckning. För att solros ska kunna gro, växa, vända sig mot solen och bilda nya frön, behöver vatten flöda på ett kontrollerat sätt genom olika celltyper i växten. Växter transporterar vatten på olika sätt. Över lånPlant water channels are members of the very old Major Intrinsic Protein (MIP) family, with representatives in bacteria, fungi, animals, and plants. The genome of the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana contains 35 MIP genes. Based on protein sequence comparisons, the MIP family has been divided in four subfamilies: the PIP (Plasma membrane Intrinsic Protein), the TIP (Tonoplast Intrinsic Protein), t

Background: The development of a reactive tumour stroma is a hallmark of tumour progression and pronounced tumour stroma is generally considered to be associated with clinical aggressiveness. The variability between tumour types regarding stroma fraction, and its prognosis associations, have not been systematically analysed. Methods: Using an objective machine-learning method we quantified the tum

ObjectiveTo report trends and characteristics of post-biopsy infections, with regard to etiology and resistance patterns, in a large unique cohort from a single-centre using the same antibiotic prophylactic regimens during a 15-year period.MethodsThis is an observational cross sectional cohort study, including all patients who underwent transrectal prostate biopsy (TR PBx) guided by ultrasound for

This study seeks, with an internet based survey containing ten pages taken from five different manga, to identify if people who read manga (Japanese comics) absorb every part of a presented manga page. It will attempt to see how well they understand various aspects of the Japanese language and what the readers focus lies on within each page, as well as touch upon the subject of using manga as a to

Kullabergs tumlare styrs av dygns- och månfas I havet runt Kullaberg i Skåne lever Sveriges enda val – tumlaren (Phocoena phocoena). Tumlaren är en liten tandval som mestadels lever ensam och som använder ett slags inbyggt ekolod, kallad biosonar, för att navigera, kommunicera och hitta fisk att äta. Utanför Kullaberg utgör tumlare en vanlig syn, men generellt hotas arten av mänsklig påverkan ochThe harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) is the only cetacean regularly found in Swedish waters. Little is known about its movements and behaviour. Around the peninsula of Kullaberg, harbour porpoises are regularly found in relatively large numbers and they are considered to use the area for both feeding and reproduction. Along the northern coast of Kullaberg six passive acoustic data loggers; Cet

Neoliberalism, as a loosely defined set of political beliefs, calls for more individual freedom and autonomy, resulting in increased responsibility for each person to address major societal issues. ‘Individualization’ is the process by which responsibility for addressing major environmental issues such as climate change is placed on individuals. In this thesis I investigate whether individualizati

Malware (malicious software) is becoming an increasing problem, as it continuously grows both in numbers and complexity. Traditional, signature based anti-virus systems are often incapable of detecting new, sophisticated malware, which calls for more advanced tools. So called sandboxes are tools which automate the process of analyzing malware by actually running them in isolated environments and o

Straffrätten är ett omfattande rättsområde som ständigt är under utveckling. Det är därför av stor relevans att undersöka och analysera från tid till tid, huruvida rådande principer och presumtioner som tillämpas fortfarande är aktuella i den rådande lagstiftningen, i samband med tillägg och lagändringar. Ett brott som är aktuellt och ett tema för diskussion för myndigheter och regeringen är hedCriminal law is a vast legal area that is constantly under development. For that reason it is important to examine and analyse, from time to time, if the ruling principles and presumptions are up to date with the changes and additions of the law. A crime that is being heavily discussed and is current to our time is honor related crime. Since the year 2020, honor motives are seen as aggravating c

Infant Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL) driven by the KMT2A::AFF1 onco-fusion is an aggressive, poor prognosis disease with few co-operative mutations. The fusion originates in utero, yet the embryonic initiating steps of disease development remain poorly understood. Here, we present a novel murine KMT2A::AFF1 model, that provides key insights into KMT2A::AFF1 pre-leukemia, relevant to human dis

Nanowires have an ideal shape for high-resolution imaging, with a small cross-section for high resolution and a long length for strong absorption. However, since the absorption in nanowires is dominated by nanophotonic effects, it is unclear what resolution and efficiency such devices could offer. Here, we investigate the limits of spatial resolution and efficiency of nanowire-based direct detecto

The structure and dynamics of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are malleable to solution conditions. Considerable effort has been devoted to understanding the effects of molecular crowding on these properties. Polymer-based crowders, such as polyethylene glycol (PEG) and Ficoll®, are commonly used to simulate the intracellular environment by replicating the high concentration of macromolec

Phage collections are essential tools for discovering and dissecting bacterial anti-phage defense systems. Here, we report the isolation, characterization, and annotated genome sequences of five environmental Escherichia coli-infecting phages, obtained during the 2023 Fundamentals of Basic and Applied Phage Biology course at Lund University. The phages were isolated using a motile E. coli K-12 BW2

Chaperone proteins are essential for maintaining proteostasis. Their main role is to assist with the folding of other proteins and to prevent the aggregation of misfolded proteins. The molecular chaperone DNAJB6b efficiently suppresses amyloid formation of several peptides. This activity may rely on the same physicochemical properties as those driving chaperone self-assembly into large micellar-li
